You are here: Home About Uganda People and Culture People and Culture People and Culture: Uganda is a study in cultural diversity. To talk about one Ugandan culture is therefore wrong. Uganda has diverse cultural groups speaking over thirty different languages. The people can be classified into the following broad categories, the Bantu, the Nilotics, the Madi-Okoru or the Sudanic speaking and the Pygmoid people. The Bantu: The Bantu who constitute more than 50% of Uganda's total population occupy the southern part of the country. The Bantu were the earliest group to come to Uganda. They comprise the Baganda, Banyoro, Basoga, Bagishu, Banyankore, Bakiga, Batooro, Bakonjo, Bamba, Batwa, Bagishu, Basamia-Bagwe, Bakenyi, Baruli and the Banyole. They are found in the east, central, western and southern parts of the country. Nilo Hamites/Atekerin: The second group is the category of people called the Atekerin group. The group is sometimes known as the Nilo-Hamites, Para Nilotes or the Lango. They live in the north, east and northeastern parts of the country. The group constitutes the Langi, Iteso, Kumam, Kakwa and the Karimojong. This group traces its origins to Ethiopia where they are said to have been one people. Migration pressures made them settle in different parts of Uganda, which led to marked differences between them. For instance the Langi lost their Ateker language and took up Luo spoken by their Acholi neighbours. The Sebei constitute the Highland Nilotes.

HOME: POPULATION ISSUES: Culture Overview ... Publications Lessons from the Field Uganda Winning Support from the Custodians of Culture Elders, kings, bishops and imams (Muslim clergy) are opinion leaders in Uganda's complex cultural environment. UNFPA has successfully reached out to partner with them in promoting healthier behaviours and the elimination of harmful traditional practices. UNFPA's work in this country, which has successfully grappled with its HIV/AIDS epidemic, is a model for working within existing cultural constructs. WHAT WORKS? Lessons from Uganda Preserving Cultural Values While Eliminating Harmful Practices When addressing harmful traditional practices, it is important to emphasize that both harmful and positive practices are found in all cultures. Soliciting the advice of the local community in the design of a project ensures that the strategies and advocacy messages developed will be culturally acceptable. Publicizing successes can create a sense of pride and reinforce community involvement. Relying on local project managers helps to ensure acceptance of a programme in the community.

At Diageo, many of these cultural values can be summed up in the words ‘passion', ‘energy', ‘pride' and ‘best'. We are passionate about our brands, about serving our consumers, and about leading the field in each market in which we compete. We are energetic about driving original thinking, new ways of working and better business practices in support of these goals. Hierarchies and conventions have no place in our business, so you will find us as relaxed and informal as we are driven and hardworking. But most of all, we are an organisation that respects, cares for and values our people – as they, and only they, make us what we are. Social responsibility: Our industry makes a unique set of products. They can be part of occasions for great enjoyment, which is the case for most people who choose to drink. They can also be misused. For that reason, our industry has a special duty to market our products responsibly and to encourage responsible consumption. Diageo does not market any of its products to those under the legal purchase age, and actively works to support enforcement of laws against underage sales. To this end, Diageo has created our own unified, mandatory code of marketing practice covering all aspects of marketing, advertising, promotions, sponsorship, merchandising and packaging. The Diageo marketing code incorporates the most rigorous provisions from each of the industry codes and imposes additional requirements intended to affirm Diageo's commitment to promote responsible drinking.

WHAT'S NEW Upcoming Events Publications Announcements ... Employment Understanding the History Appreciating the Culture Journal Entry #3 October 27, 2003 I have been learning a lot about Uganda in these past six weeks. I have been reading the local and national papers, socializing with my new Ugandan friends, exploring the country, eating the local food, participating in local practices such as going to the market for food, taking the local transportation, and attending a cultural performance. All of these activities have helped me to adapt to my new environment and to gain a deeper understanding of Uganda's values. This is one of the cultural events I attended, a group of orphans singing and dancing at the source of the Nile. I realized that in order to be effective and satisfied while working and living here, I also needed to also understand Uganda's history to appreciate the culture. Like many African countries, Uganda's history is marked with colonialism, civil war, political unrest, and the emergence of many infectious diseases such as HIV/AIDS. The British missionaries came to Uganda to convert the spiritual beliefs of the people - which were based on animism, a belief in the power of the natural world - to ones based on Christianity.

Policy Cultural diversity Cultural heritage Art and development ... Economic development The arts are not always in a prominent place on the political agenda in Africa, Latin-America and Asia. Nevertheless, an increasing number of governments recognise the importance of culture in itself and in connection to social and economic development. Part six in a series on cultural policy in non-Western countries. Uganda Women's groups in Uganda were furious when the government banned the local version of The Vagina Monologues in February. The title of the famous play about violence against women by the American Eve Ensler was damaging to social standards, according to the officials. The women's organizations felt that the government's censuring had moved them back through time: after all, Uganda is one of the countries that truly respects the freedom of expression in actual practice. The draft cultural policy, which will be submitted to Cabinet for approval in August 2005,, links the arts to social development. The responsible ministry of Gender, Labor and Social Development has integrated culture into the national plan to combat poverty. It promotes cultural industries as a source of income for the poor and encourages the use of indigenous know-how. The ministry emphasizes de-centralization: local authorities should formulate their own cultural policy, albeit based on the national guidelines. Of Uganda's 56 districts, 13 have their own culture office. In other districts, community development officers are responsible for the local cultural policy.

Their concern heightened after the government announced a ban on ‘The Vagina Monologues’, a poetic play depicting domestic violence. One of those critical of the ban, Jackie Wesonga had already bought a ticket to watch the play in Kampala, the capital of Uganda. ‘’That was uncalled for, unfair and unconstitutional. How dare they do that at the time women are steadily getting their feet on the ground? That is suppression, taking us ten steps backwards,’’ complained 34-year-old secondary school teacher. Organised by a group of women’s organisations in Uganda, a production of renowned poetess Eve Ensler, the show was aimed to raise awareness on violence, with women reciting their own stories of rape, incest, domestic battering and genital mutilation. Proceeds of the play were meant to help the women in the conflict-torn north of the country.

One of the more recent excavations is at Kiboro near Lake Albert, where there are traces of village life going back a thousand years. Recorded history has a much shorter tradition, and a documentary evidence of Uganda's past goes only 150 years. However, oral traditions are also important to us, and from these we learn stories of several hundred years ago. The 19th century was a period of great change and great strife in Uganda. Many of the most famous sites are associated to this period. Important sites that relate to people and events in Uganda's rich past are now popular places for tourists to visit.
